- woke up at 6:30 am
- finished sewing the pioneer dresses, bonnets, pantaloons, apron and nightgown
- panicked because I couldn't get the bonnets to work right
- called my mom and begged her to make the bonnets in exchange for free babysitting
- She said "yes" I said "wow" she said "when" I said "how about right now"
- Oh sorry...that's a country song...she just sighed heavily and said yes.
- helped Kinsey pack for her trip
- took Kinsey to her friend's house
- cleaned up the sewing explosion
- picked Kinsey up from her friend's house
- took Chris to band practice
- took Kinsey to airport
- said "yes Carson?" a million times when he said "mommeeeeeeeee" screechingly
- heard a lot of "no, momeee, noooooooooooooooo!!!"
- told Emily she could go to a friend's house (forgot to ask which friend, where she lives, phone #)
- oops...she called an hour later to let me know she got there safely
- told Jared he could go to friend's house
- 5:06 pm Chris comes running down the stairs yelling "mom, you were supposed to take me somewhere at 5 (his eyes say "you idiot mom, you are supposed to remind me!")
- rush to take him, hoping they haven't left yet
- Gary comes home takes Carson to Chick-fil-a for some emma-ade
- I lock the doors really fast because the house is blissfully quiet
- Emily rings the doorbell 5 minutes later...darn, peace is gone
- everyone comes home, I fall asleep in the chair
Now...to focus on the positive:
- Kinsey made it safely to Florida - no hijackers, plane crashes, giant fat men taking up 2 1/2 seats smelling like smoke or b.o. and getting drunk
- Carson played in our little pool for a very long time...he loves his pool...the best $20 I ever spent
- I finished the pioneer wardrobe
- Chris was being taken out to dinner because he memorized all of the scripture mastery scriptures for seminary this year
- Carson had fun playing in the playland at Chick-fil-a
- Carson doesn't know that when someone says "he talks funny" to be insulted...he loves them anyway (the someone was 4 and his parents were mortified)
- Emily got to play at a friend's house
- Jared got to play at a friend's house
- I had a nice, hot bubble bath and a few minutes of peace
I can't wait for day 2
